Cookie Monster & Elmo Cupcakes

I made chocolate cupcakes, cut a tiny slit on one side to fit a chocolate chip cookie in. I tinted the buttercream/frosting with blue food colouring (gel by wilton). I used the grass tip for the decorating. for the eyes I used white candy melts and mini chocolate melts or flat chocolate chips(both from balkbarn). I sticked them on with frosting.

For the Elmo cupcakes, I used Wilton red icing in the tube and used my grass tip. I used the while candy melts for the eyes and chocolate chips for the pupils, orange gum drops for the nose. I cut the Oreo cookies in half for the mouth.
